Below are two games to test your knowledge of the different types of pronoun.

Table of Contents

These two games test whether you can place a list of random pronouns into the following categories:

Personal pronoun. Personal pronouns (e.g., "he," "she," and "they") represent specific people or things in a sentence, making communication more concise.
Possessive pronoun. Possessive pronouns (e.g., "his," "hers," and "theirs") represent something while indicating ownership.
Relative pronoun. Relative pronouns (e.g., "who," "which," and "that") connect clauses to provide information about a noun.
Demonstrative pronoun. Demonstrative pronouns (e.g., "this," "that," and "those") point to specific objects to clarify what we're referring to.
Reflexive pronoun. Reflexive pronouns (e.g., "myself," "yourself," and "itself") reflect the action of the subject back onto itself.
Emphatic pronoun. Emphatic pronouns are the same as reflexive pronouns, but they are used for emphasis.
Indefinite pronoun. Indefinite pronouns (e.g., "everyone," "something," and "nothing") refer to non-specific people or things.
Interrogative pronoun. Interrogative pronouns (e.g., "who," "what," and "which") are used to ask questions.
Reciprocal pronoun. Reciprocal pronouns (e.g., "each other" and "one another") express mutual actions or relationships between people or things.
